Choosing the right mallets to achieve a successful sound outdoors can be a challenge. Now more than ever, sound quality of the pit ensemble is something that doesn?t go unnoticed. Sound quality is a result of technique, equipment, scoring and of course – mallet selection. The fact of the matter is this: There is no “one” mallet that will work for every musical application. I?ll recommend several mallets for the tight budget a little later, but if you plan on getting the best sound possible (or combination of sound), you must understand that this will entail some mallet-changing. This (you knew this was coming) requires an investment in a good variety of mallets. If you take proper care of your mallets (which is not difficult to do with a little discipline), they will most likely last you a very long time. Today?s top mallet manufacturers have created some very durable mallets specifically geared toward holding up in the rigorous environment of marching ensembles.
